Project Strategy
New York City 2020, The epicenter of Covid 19 with the hardest hit areas in the country like Queens, Bronx, and Brooklyn. NYC Health + Hospitals quickly executed a plan to build community health centers to specialize and treat Covid 19 patients. The Center Of Excellence medical treatment facility were fast tracked and fully planned, executed, built and open for patients in less than 6 months. This fast paced construction was further challenged by being built in Queens NY a Covid hot spot since March 2020. However the great partnerships from NYC Design and Construction, Perkins Eastman, Gilbane Building Contractor, and all the subcontractors and vendors, including Re:Source New Jersey and our many Starnet Vendors, pulled it off. The Queens facility was built on time and opened in 2020 treating Covid patients, thanks to the efforts of many who helped expedite materials, man power, coordination to make this happen in record speed.
